SUMMARY: On May 1, 2007, Scott Blaising, counsel for California Municipal
Utilities Association (CMUA), met with Karen Shea, advisor to Cmmr. Simon in
San Francisco. Blaising commented on the proposed decision (PD) relating to
cost responsibility surcharge (CRS) exemption protocols for certain new
Municipal Departing Load (MDL) customers. Blaising expressed concern that the
PD could be construed as saying that CRS exemptions will automatically apply to
certain MDL customers and noted that such a conclusion would be wrong. Blaising
noted that CMUA proposed changes to the PD to resolve the ambiguity. Contact

On February 27, 2007, Scott Blaising, counsel for California Municipal
Utilities Association (CMUA), met with Rami Kahlon, advisor to Pres. Peevey in
San Francisco. Blaising stated that CMUA is opposed to Pacific Gas and
Electric Company's (PG&E) request in its petition to modify Decision 06-07-030
that the Commission disallow the use of netting to offset a "negative"
indifference rate against a "positive" indifference rate. Blaising noted that
PG&E's request is inconsistent with D.06-07-030, contrary to numerous other
Commission's decisions, principally D.05-12-045, and should not be allowed.
Blaising discussed the issue of negative and positive Indifference Rate.

On February 6, 2007, Scott Blaising, counsel for Power and Water Resources
Pooling Authority (PWRPA), met with Rami Kahlon, advisor to President Peevey in
San Francisco. Written materials (attached to the notice) were used. Blaising
stated that PWRPA is opposed to Pacific Gas and Electric Company's (PG&E) rate
proposal in its petition to modify Decision 06-07-030. Blaising stated that the
issue presented by PG&E's petition is the same issue that PWRPA protested in
response to PG&E's Advice Letter 2835-E. Blaising emphasized that the
Department of Water Resources (DWR) Power Charge should not be determined as
proposed by PG&E, but should be determined based on the actual accrued costs.
Blaising urged the Commission to reject PG&E's proposal and instead base the
DWR Power Charge on actual accrued costs.

SUMMARY: On November 16, 2006, Susie Berlin, counsel for the Northern
California Power Agency, met with Rami Kahlon, advisor to Pres. Peevey, in San
Francisco. Also present were Joy Warren, Senior Staff Attorney, for the Modesto
Irrigation District, and Dan Carroll, counsel for Merced Irrigation District
and Modesto Irrigation District. The parties discussed draft resolution E-3999
(draft resolution). Berlin emphasized that the publicly owned utilities (POUs)
are looking for resolution of the billing and collection issue, but want to
insure that what is finally adopted is both legal and practicable. Carroll
commended the draft resolution's conclusion that Pacific Gas and Electric
Company could not terminate natural gas service to POU customers that may fail
to pay the cost responsibility surcharge. Carroll and Warren explained why the
draft resolution fails to properly address a "New Party" or "Change of Party".
Carroll also noted that the draft resolution should be clarified to address the
fact that customer usage information is not the property of the POU.

Department of Water Resources bond charge.

On June 6, 2006, William H. Booth, counsel for the California Large Energy
Consumers Association, met with Belinda Gatti, advisor to Cmmr. Brown, in San

advisor to Cmmr. Brown, Chris Danforth of the Office of Ratepayer Advocates,
Mark Huffman and Roger Goldstein for Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E),
Steve McClary for the Alliance for Retail Energy Markets, and Mike Florio for
The Utility Reform Network. Parties discussed the joint recommendation of these
parties, and Southern California Edison Company (SCE) and the California
Manufacturers and Technology Association (CMTA). Booth stated that parties had
come to an agreement regarding several issues pertinent to the Direct Access
Cost Responsibility Surcharge (DA CRS) and that they had incorporated their
agreement in a joint proposal. Booth noted the dissatisfaction of parties with
regard to previous attempt to quantify the DA CRS components. Booth stated that
the parties in the meeting, as well as SCE and CMTA, have proposed a
modification in the method of determining the indifference fee element. Huffman
noted that the agreement will result in PG&E¿s DA CRS undercollection balance
reaching zero on July 1, 2006, and that it will necessitate a change in the
development of the DA CRS charges to its customers; prospectively, it will
assemble each of the DA CRS elements on a bottoms up basis and will not impose
a cap on such charges. Huffman also discussed the interaction of the
`statutory¿ approach to development of the CTC and the indifference fee, and
noted that a delay in the Commission¿s decision on this matter would complicate
the utility¿s implementation of such charges. Booth noted that the proposal is
also time sensitive for SCE and its customers.

Description:
On June 6, 2006, William H. Booth, counsel for the California Large Energy
Consumers Association (CLECA), met with Robert Lane, advisor to Cmmr. Bohn, at
Max's Diner in San Francisco. Also present was Steve McClary, consultant to the
Alliance for Retain Energy Markets (AReM). Booth and McClary discussed the
joint recommendation of CLECA and AReM, and Southern California Edison Company
(SCE) and the California Manufacturers and Technology Association. Booth stated
that these parties had come to an agreement regarding several issues pertinent
to the Direct Access Cost Responsibility Surcharge (DA CRS). Booth noted the
dissatisfaction of parties with regard to previous attempts to quantify the DA
CRS. McClary stated that the agreement will result in PG&E's DA CRS
undercollection balance reaching zero on July 1, 2006, and that this will
necessitate a change in the development of the DA CRS charges to its customers;
prospectively, it will assemble each of the DA CRS elements on a bottoms up
basis and will not impose a cap on such charges. Booth noted that the proposal
is also time sensitive for SCE and its customers. Booth and McClary urged that
this matter be processed expeditiously and that the joint proposals on DA CRS
issues be adopted.

Kaltman, intern, Cmmr. Brown's office, and Mark Huffman, counsel, PG&E. Huffman
suggested that the same treatment recommended in the Working Group report with
respect to direct access (DA) customers be applied to departing load customers.
PG&E also explained that, consistent with the recommendation in the Working
Group Report with respect to DA customers, once the CTC is calculated on a
`bottoms up' basis, then the sum of the ongoing CTC plus the Department of
Water Resources power charge should not be allowed to be negative.

On Mach 9, 2006, Chris Mayer, Assistant General Manager, Planning and
Marketing, Modesto Irrigation District, met with David Gamson, advisor to Cmmr.
Brown, in San Francisco. Also present were Susie Berlin, counsel for Northern
California Power Agency and Turlock Irrigation District, and Jeanne Armstrong,
counsel for South San Joaquin Irrigation District. A copy of the filed comments
of the public owned utilities (POUs) was used. Armstrong discussed the total
portfolio adjustment (TPA) and its application to municipal departing load (DL)
exempt from the Department of Water Resources (DWR) Power Charge, noting that
the TPA was essentially the same as the PCIA recommended for customers not
exempt from the DWR Power Charge. Mayer, Armstrong and Berlin also discussed
the Working Group process noting that the DL parties were not asked to
participate in that process, and further that it was the understanding of the
DL parties that the settlement discussions between the direct access (DA) and
investor-owned utility (IOU) parties would address only DA specific matters.
Berlin addressed the IOU comments regarding the CRS credit for transferred DL
customers that helped to finance the DA CRS undercollections as bundled
customers. Berlin stated that the POU parties do not believe that
administrative complexity should be a bar to crediting customers for components
of the CRS.

to the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) has flexibility, and can
accommodate problems that UC Davis has. Kim noted that, given the usage by UC
Davis, there may be substantial evidence that the shorter-term usage by UC
Davis may be more indicative of UC Davis' load.

Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) on December 31, 2004. Blaising noted that PG&E
has declined to meet with senior management of the PWRP. Palmerton and Blaising
provided a description of four categories of customers served by WAPA that may

On July 19, 2005, Eric Eisenman, Chief, Regulatory Relations, Pacific Gas and
Electric Company (PG&E), had a telephone communication with Amy Yip-Kikugawa,
advisor to Cmmr. Bohn. Eisenman requested that the Commission supprt the
proposed decision of ALJ Pulsifer and explained that the alternate decision of
Cmmr. Peevey would exempt unfairly significant amounts of new Municipal
Departing Load from surcharges. Eisenman also explained that the AD would
extend the Section 369 stand-along exemption to all components of the Cost
Responsibility Surcharge, even though there is no record evidence supporting
this.

On July 18, 2005, Scott Blaising, counsel for the California Municipal
Utilities Association (CMUA), had a telephone conversation with Amy
Yip-Kikugawa, advisor to Cmmr. Bohn. Blaising stated that Pacific Gas and
Electric Company (PG&E) continues to inappropriately re-litigate the scope of
the exemption accorded new municipal departing load (MDL) served by entities
named in he PG&E Bypass Report. Blaising stated further that contrary of
Southern California Edison's position, the stand-alone issue should be analyzed
in reference to Public Utilities Code Section 369 and the investor-owned
utilities' tariffs. Blaising also asserted that the alternate decision
appropriately clarifies D04-11-014 with respect to the 80 MW new MDL exemption.
Blaising underscored CMUA's overall view that MDL and CGDL in stand-alone
situations ought to be treated comparably.

On July 18, 2005, Scott Blaising, counsel for the California Municipal
Utilities Association (CMUA), left a telephone voice-mail message to Julie
Fitch, advisor to Cmmr. Peevey. Blaising commented on Pacific Gas and Electric
Company's suggestion that elements of its advice letter filing be included in a
modified version of the alternate decision, noting the suggestion is
procedurally inappropriate, since it does not give parties an opportunity to
provide comments on a highly technical proposal. Blaising underscored CMUA's
overall view that MDL and CGDL in stand-alone situations ought to be treated
comparably.
